Diana Becker, BACP

Diana Becker is a counsellor who brings warmth, careful listening, and professional experience to people working through emotional challenges. With ten years of practice in the United Kingdom, she supports individuals encountering stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family difficulties, grief, issues with self-esteem, addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, parenting and career pressures, and the transitions that life often brings. She also pays particular attention to attachment and abandonment wounds, caregiver stress, codependency, feelings of emptiness, family dynamics, midlife questions, panic symptoms, self-love, and social anxiety.

Diana uses an integrative framework that values the potential for growth as well as the relief of distress. Her work is informed by Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Jungian ideas, Mindfulness practices, Psychodynamic perspectives, and Somatic methods, and she draws on psychosynthesis principles that view difficulties alongside opportunities for deeper meaning and fulfillment. This flexible approach is adapted to each person and focuses on what proves most helpful in the moment.

She trained originally as an educator and has extensive experience working with parents and children, which contributes to a strong grounding in human development across the lifespan. Diana is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP - a UK professional body that represents counsellors and psychotherapists. She offers a listening presence that aims to reduce shame, build mutual trust, and encourage connection, meeting people with acceptance and emotional warmth as they explore change and greater wellbeing.

Conversations with Diana are intended to create space for clearer understanding of what is troubling someone now and to explore practical and reflective ways forward. She works in a gentle, natural manner that supports people to move toward more inner peace, improved emotional regulation, and an increased sense of purpose and joy in daily life. She provides services in English and German and practices from a stance of empathy, respect, and attentiveness to each person's unique experience.
